Effect of leucopaine on the processes of purulent wound repairing in experiments and clinical cases.

Abstract

The article presents data about the effect of leucopaine, a vegetable enzyme preparation, on the regenerative processes of injured tissue in rabbits as well as about the treatment of purulent wounds in 303 patients under clinical conditions. Leucopaine was shown to have positive effect on the dynamics of purulent wound repair, to facilitate wound cleaning from necrotic tissues and to promote liquidation of inflammatory reaction and purulent exudation, creating favorable conditions for active growth of granulation tissue, formation of fine, unobtrusive scar. It also shortened 1.5 times the wound repairing period.
